August 15 Ezekiel 1-7 Wrath of the LORD

WOW!!!!

Anyone who is not taken back by the LORD says He will do to Jerusalem and its inhabitants has to be stone-cold slow. The descriptions of what will come are downright scary and should cause anyone to rethink their own rebellion against God. Interspersed throughout the destruction is God reminding all that it is all well-earned retribution for their rebellion against God.

God charges them as being more evil than the pagan nations surrounding them. This reminds me of the US, known around the world as the largest "christian" nation in the world. In the same breath, the US is also recognized as the largest importer of smut around the world. The decadence and materialism of America is well chronicled. granted, the US is also the most generous nation in the world - at least that is what we tell each other.

Our behavior will be judged by God. Rebellion against God - rejecting His Son - living in unrepentant sin as defined by God - will result in everlasting punishment - worse than read about today.
